Jasmine was a huge help today! She tested my battery, looked up the replacement options for a new battery and windshield wipers and then installed all of the above quickly. She helped me with a smile on her face the entire time! Great customer service! I will be a returning customer because of her!

Excellent customer service from Laura!! I was just getting started on a 2k mile trip in a rental car to drop off our son at college. It was early - 6:30AM - and it started to rain hard.. and my windshield wipers were rotten!! - just smearing the rain around. Scary and dangerous. I got off the highway and searched the nearest auto parts store (so glad it was this one) and waited in the parking lot until they opened. Laura found the wipers I needed and INSTALLED THEM IN THE RAIN for me. She was a kind angel that helped calm my mom heart and keep us safe. Hats off to Laura!! Protect her at all costs.

HOW DO BRAKES WORK?
Expand FAQ item
Brakes work by using friction to turn kinetic energy into heat. There are two designs: drum brakes (older), and disc brakes (newer). Both use hydraulic pressure to move a piston outward. In disc brakes, the piston is located inside a caliper that houses brake pads and fits over the rotor. The friction lining on the pads makes contact with the rotor to slow the vehicle. In drum brakes, the piston moves two curved shoes lined with friction material against the inside of the brake drum.
